Quality

Exclusive Wood Doors offers exceptional quality from hinges to locks. As one of our top-quality vendors, EWD provides an endless variety of doors that will withstand the test of time and Florida’s tropical conditions.  

Offering two hinge types: a butt hinge and concealed adjustable hinge, EWD hinges are available in different sizes for different weight capacities, materials, and finishes to complement the architectural style of any home.

EWD features an exclusive award-winning Simonswerk Tectus concealed adjustable hinge, which is one of many innovative hardware options. It is not only aesthetically pleasing due to its invisibility but also adjustable in the x, y, and z-axis. EWD is one of the only manufacturers with hurricane-impact-approved concealed adjustable hinges.

Offering a variety of lock options to meet your home’s aesthetic and security requirements, EWD aligns the design with the function of your door. Lock types include single deadbolt locks with roller catches, tubular locks, mortise locks, lever-activated multipoint locks, and key-activated multipoint locks. While you can find contemporary and traditional handles for all lock types, each corresponds to a function and architectural style.

EWD’s swinging front door has exceeded Florida’s most rigorous hurricane impact testing standards for air, water, and structural performance, with design pressure ratings compliant with High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements.
